We have a large water leak on the road leading to our property which has been there for around 3yrs. Everyone I know in the area have reported it to the water company but to date they have just ignored it and the water is being wasted all year round. Anyone have any other ideas of how we can get this fixed ? It’s corroding the road causing it to collapse too Does anyone on the board know anyone at the water company ? Or is it just a lost cause?

Thanks Stella - yes we have emailed :westmanidimoslink@gmail.com quite a few times from several different people but havnt even had a response. We have also copied in the Mayors office. It’s very frustrating as we all paid to have the road redone before the leak and it’s corroding really badly. Such a waste of water as well. I understand leaks happen but to be left in this bad state for so long is really bad of them. Will keep trying and if anyone has any further help/advice I’m all ears

Just had another thought. Can KEP in Kardamili the equivalent of our CAB help you to escalate the complaint? Maybe there are contact details on the Parea site. I will check. I agree it is a terrible waste of water at a time when some of us here are enjoying water cuts. Found in telephone directory https://www.vrisko.gr/details/16_j7fd_c ... 0ΜΕΣΣΗΝΙΑΣ

Very glad something worked! Reading Tharros the local rag, I see there are water problems in many places in the area. Don't know whether they are not collecting enough money to effect repairs and replacements of pipes or whether the money is being badly allocated. Compared to England, we pay very little indeed for water here. I have recently enjoyed water cuts during the day with the tank filling up at night, only to find when the supply was re-connected that the pressure caused the ballcock to malfunction. Cue visit of plumber and cost of new ballcock! Such is life here.
